Product description Sennheiser E 935
Developed for vocals and tuned for demanding live applications, this dynamic handheld microphone combines natural voice reproduction with good presence and high feedback rejection. The cardioid pickup pattern focuses the recording specifically on your voice, while the robust construction is built to withstand regular stage use. Transparent highs, powerful lower mids, and a targeted presence boost ensure that vocals stand out clearly in the mix without losing their natural character.
Presence that gives the voice space
The acoustic tuning places the clear focus on vocals. Transparent highs maintain articulation and detail, while warm lower mids give the voice body and substance. A targeted boost in the range between 2.5 and 3 kHz supports the presence of the voice in the mix. Especially in arrangements with guitars, drums, or other assertive instruments, this allows the vocals to stand out clearly without needing excessive processing at the mixing desk.
With a frequency response of 40 Hz to 18 kHz, the microphone covers a broad range of the human voice. The tuning is suitable for various vocal styles and works well for both powerful lead vocals and more reserved background vocals. Throughout, the reproduction remains balanced and natural, rather than unnecessarily highlighting individual frequency ranges too sharply.
Focused on what happens in front of the microphone
Due to its cardioid pickup pattern, the transducer primarily records from the front and reduces sound from other directions. This is particularly helpful with stage monitors, loud instruments, and limited distances between multiple sound sources. At the same time, the design reacts relatively tolerantly to movements in front of the capsule. This means you do not have to hold your position with millimeter precision at all times. The cardioid polar pattern supports a controlled recording and simultaneously makes practical handling easier during a performance.
More headroom before feedback
On loud stages, it is not just the sound of a microphone that matters, but also the potential level before annoying feedback kicks in. Sennheiser has designed the vocal microphone for high usable gain. According to the manufacturer, the construction offers up to 6 dB of additional headroom before feedback compared to selected comparison microphones. This high feedback rejection can be particularly advantageous with powerful monitoring or densely arranged stages.
Designed for regular use
A robust metal housing protects the technology during transport, rehearsals, and events. Inside, the microphone capsule is shock-mounted, which reduces annoying handling and structural noise. Additionally, there is a hum-compensation coil and a sealed internal air chamber. Together, these details form a stage-ready construction that is designed not only for sound but also for reliable operation in daily use.
At 355 grams, the handheld microphone has a solid weight without being unnecessarily heavy. The classic design is comfortable to grip and is suitable for use both in the hand and on a microphone stand. The signal transmission is wired via a three-pin XLR connector. As a dynamic microphone, it requires no phantom power for normal operation.
Why does the Sennheiser e 935 suit you?
This model is aimed at singers who regularly rehearse, perform, or are looking for a reliable vocal solution for events. It is suitable for lead and background vocals, singer-songwriters, bands, worship teams, and professional musicians. Even if your microphone technique is not yet fully routine, the relatively tolerant characteristics will work in your favour. The microphone is particularly interesting for you if you prefer natural vocals with good presence and controlled feedback tendencies.

Tolles Mikrofon
Ich singe seit 30 Jahren durch ein Sennheiser Blackfire BF530 und nun war es Zeit für etwas Neues. Ich singe mit wenig Abstand (bin meist mit den Lippen am Korb) und hatte ein wenig Angst, dass der Nahbesprechungseffekt Zuviel „Mulm“ bringt. Das ist nicht der Fall. Auch den Vergleich zu Kondensatormikrofonen (habe Neumann, Sennheiser E965) braucht es nicht scheuen. Ich bin mit diesem Produkt sehr zufrieden. Es klingt ein bisschen besser (besser Höhenwiedergabe), wie mein altes BF530. Ich kann dieses Mikroon nur empfehlen.
Sehr guter Shop
Sehr gutes Mikro, schnelle Lieferung
Neue Features !!!
Nachdem mir am Ende der Probe mein Shure runterfiel & kaputt ging.....musste schnell ein Ersatz her!
Auf Nachfrage bei meinem Tontechnikmeister kam die klare Aussage - Sennheiser 935 für meine Powerstimme & den Proberaum!
Also gesagt - getan - bestellt und besungen....... :-)
Fazit: Geil wie das Teil meine Stimme an den richtigen Frequenzen puscht und neue Klangsphären zulässt! Jederzeit wieder......als neue Funke?

Important questions about the article Sennheiser E 935
Question: Does the Sennheiser E 935 require phantom power?
Answer: No. As a dynamic microphone, it works without phantom power; it can therefore remain switched off on the XLR input of a mixing console or audio interface.
Question: What voices and applications is the E 935 designed for?
Answer: It is a wired vocal microphone for lead and backing vocals, singer-songwriters and live stages. Its voicing focuses on clear highs, warm low mids and vocal presence in the mix.
Question: What does the cardioid polar pattern mean in practice?
Answer: The microphone primarily picks up from the front and attenuates sound sources at the sides and rear more strongly. This also makes it suitable for stages with monitors and other loud instruments.
Question: How should I position a stage monitor with the E 935?
Answer: Position the monitor behind the microphone where possible, in the direction of its rear attenuation. This makes better use of the cardioid polar pattern and reduces the risk of feedback.
Question: Is the E 935 robust enough for regular live performances?
Answer: Yes. Its metal housing, shock-mounted capsule, hum-compensating coil and sealed air chamber are designed for stage and touring use.
Question: Are handling noises reduced when singing with it in the hand?
Answer: The shock-mounted capsule reduces handling noise. It cannot be eliminated completely if the microphone is moved vigorously or held by the grille.
Question: What connection and additional accessories do I need?
Answer: The E 935 has an XLR-3 connector and requires a suitable XLR microphone cable plus a microphone input on a mixing console or audio interface. An XLR cable is not included.
Question: What is included with the Sennheiser E 935?
Answer: The package includes the microphone, the MZQ 800 microphone clip, a pouch, instructions and a warranty card.
